ause Mark is older, he receives $20 for each mowing job and Ryan receives $15. The brothers’ parents pay for the fuel used to mow, so all of the money the brothers earn goes to savings.

Answer:

  • 30 jobs

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Mark</u>

  • Initial amount - $200
  • Earning - $20*j
  • Saving is: S = 20j + 200

<u>Ryan</u>

  • Initial amount - $350
  • Earning - $15*j
  • Saving is: S = 15j + 350

<u>If they get same saving, then the equations will be equal:</u>

  • 20j + 200 = 15j + 350
  • 20j - 15j = 350 - 200
  • 5j = 150
  • j = 150/5
  • j = 30

The answer is 30 mowing jobs

Gertrude takes out a $5,500 subsidized stafford loan, which must be paid back in ten years. gertrude will graduate four years af
Leno4ka [110]

The total amount of interest will Gertrude pay by the time the subsidized Stafford loan is repaid is $2094.80.

<h3>What is compound interest?</h3>

Compound interest is the amount charged on the principal amount and the accumulated interest with a fixed rate of interest for a time period.

The formula for the final amount with the compound interest formula can be given as,

A=P\times\left(1+\dfrac{r}{n\times100}\right)^{nt}\\

Here, A is the final amount (principal plus interest amount) on the principal amount P of with the rate<em> r </em>of in the time period of <em>t.</em>

Gertrude will graduate four years after taking out the loan. if the loan has an interest rate of 6.8%, compounded monthly, and Gertrude makes monthly payments.

Put the values in the above formula as,

5500=P_{mt}\times\left(1-\dfrac{6.8}{12\times100}\right)^{-12\times10}\\P_{mt}=63.29

In the 10 years, the refund she gets,

A_r=63.29\times12\times100\\A_r=7594.8

Interest paid by her is,

I=7594.8-5500\\I=2094.8

Thus, the total amount of interest will Gertrude pay by the time the subsidized Stafford loan is repaid is $2094.80.
